New Grade
Since 2018, I have had the privilege of teaching 3rd grade at Huntington Christian School. From the very first moment I stepped onto the HCS campus, I knew there was something truly special about this school. The teachers and staff demonstrate an unparalleled commitment to their students, creating an environment where children are deeply loved, encouraged, and guided in both academics and faith.
One of the greatest joys of teaching at HCS has been sharing God’s love with my students and watching their eyes sparkle as they discover that He is their Heavenly Father. I love weaving God’s Word throughout our 3rd grade curriculum and helping students connect Christian principles back to Scripture in meaningful and practical ways. My passion is to help students grow academically while also becoming spiritually grounded and filled with His truth.

A Note from Tecla:
"As a parent, I have also been incredibly blessed to have all three of my own children attend Huntington Christian School. Watching their academic abilities grow exponentially while being grounded in a strong biblical foundation has been one of the greatest gifts for our family. Their teachers poured into them with wisdom, encouragement, and Christ-centered love, helping shape not only who they are as students, but who they are as followers of Jesus. I have seen firsthand how HCS equips students to excel academically while developing a deep and personal faith in God. Seeing both my children and my students flourish spiritually and academically continually confirms what a special community HCS truly is."
